Playing an Animation
To the right of the animation frame value are several controls for playing, rewinding, and moving through the
animation frames, as shown in Figure 1-29. Using these buttons, you can jump to the animation start (or end),
step back (or forward) one frame, step back (or forward) one key, or play the animation forward (or backward).
